This case report presents the clinical features, diagnosis, and management of PBS in a newborn. This is the first case report of prune belly syndrome in Somalia. The condition is estimated to occur in approximately 1 in 30,000 to 1 in 50,000 live births, making it a relatively uncommon presentation. Recognizing and managing this syndrome is crucial, as it can lead to significant morbidity and mortality if not addressed promptly.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case presentation:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A term baby delivered without complications developed respiratory distress, jaundice, and urinary retention shortly after birth. Physical examination revealed abdominal distension, fluid in the abdomen, and bilateral undescended testes. Laboratory tests showed elevated bilirubin levels and abnormal blood counts. Ultrasound findings demonstrated bilateral hydroureteronephrosis and underdeveloped abdominal wall muscles. The limited resources and infrastructure in the healthcare setting in Somalia posed challenges in providing comprehensive care for this neonate.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>PBS is a rare congenital syndrome with a higher prevalence in males. Its exact cause is not fully understood, but genetic factors may play a role. The management of PBS in resource-limited settings can be particularly challenging. The differential diagnosis included sepsis, neonatal jaundice, and posterior urethral valves. The key interventions included supportive care, such as maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance, treating infections, and addressing any urinary tract abnormalities. The limited access to specialized pediatric urology services and advanced diagnostic tools, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), hindered the ability to fully characterize the extent of the urinary tract abnormalities and plan definitive surgical interventions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Despite the constraints of the resource-limited setting, the supportive care and management strategies implemented led to an improvement in the baby's condition. This case highlights the importance of recognizing and managing Prune Belly Syndrome, even in environments with limited healthcare resources. Continued efforts to improve diagnostic capabilities and access to specialized care are crucial for optimizing the outcomes of patients with this rare and complex congenital disorder.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2024.110310","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,18]],"date-time":"2024-09-18T05:17:19Z","timestamp":1726636639000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Prune belly syndrome in a neonate with severe bilateral hydronephrosis: A rare case report from Somalia"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"123","author":[{"given":"Abdirahman Omer","family":"Ali","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdirahman Ibrahim","family":"Said","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health Sciences, School of Medicine and Surgery, Amoud University, Borama, Somalia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed Ahmed","family":"Abdilahi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdirahman Said","family":"Deheye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health Sciences, School of Medicine and Surgery, Amoud University, Borama, Somalia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdisalam Hassan","family":"Muse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Postgraduate Studies and Research, Amoud University, Amoud Valley, Borama 25263, Somalia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-128-20260507","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.5348\/101097Z01PC2020CR","article-title":"Renal complication due to prune belly syndrome: a case report","volume":"11","author":"Nogarotto Cembraneli,","year":"2020","journal-title":"Int.
